Subaru Impreza 1997 Wheels Cap/cover/hubSubaru Impreza 1997 Wheels Cap/cover/hub Review #704176 SUBARU IMPREZA 1997 car safety problem was reported on .SUBARU IMPREZA 1997, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with WHEELS:CAP/COVER/HUB . the original hubcaps are a safety violation. subaru made a very bad engineering design. they fastened a plastic ring with holes to each rim that the hubcaps are supposed to fit in with a twist. the problem is the amount of force or pounds per square inch that's required to remove the hubcap so one can change a tire in an emergency situation. a special tool to do this is provided (an afterthought by the company -oops). putting the hubcaps on is more difficult and either way the tool has to be restraightened at least once per tire. i've recently retired from the military and i'm in good shape. i'm (6'& 188 lbs) and i have to struggle to remove the hubcaps. my daughter could not even come close to removing the hubcap. she can work a jack and the lugnuts but cannot take the hubcap off. women, senior citizens, and many men can not provide the lps per inch to remove the wheelcover which is necessary to get to the lugnuts. i was told that subaru only had this type of wheelcover for 1996 & 1997. do i have to remove these rings and purchase new wheelcovers so i know my daughter will not get stranded from a flat tire? i think subaru missed a very basic safety mark here and should rectify the situation..Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JF1GC4353VG.

Subaru Impreza 1997 Reports
I test drove a 2011 Subaru Outback yesterday at night in a very dark area with the headlights on. I could only see out of the bottom third of the windshield. The top two thirds of the windshield looked as if a black curtain had dropped down over i I notice if I quickly accelerate/go into overdrive - front of car will hum. Do I need to have something checked out? 2004 forester xt, strong gas smell in the cold weather when the heat is on. They won't fix it because they "can't find it" at my dealership. Do I need a new fuel line or is there an easier fix? Thank you for these, can find a decent review now. My 1998 subaru forester stutters/hiccups/bucks (whatever you call it) when going uphill, and when accelerating on a straight path, can it be the transmission? I HAVE A SUBARU FORESTER 2000 TAIL LIGHT/PLATE LIGHT/'FRONT SIGNAL LIGHT STAYS ON.ONCE FUSE IS REMOVED LIGHT GOES OUT.WHAT COULD THE PROBLEM BE? I own a 2008 Subaru impreza, till last week i was fine, but now it is having some problem i.e it is making whining sound from steering pump, will i have to replace the steering pump and hoe much will it cost. Standard on all Impreza models are anti lock disc brakes, stability control, front seat side airbags, side curtain airbags and active front head restraints to help mitigate crash-induced whiplash 2006 Subaru outback died. Will not tke a boost. With battery cable connected there is an error code in the odometer. Does anybody know what this can be? 2007 Forester bangs into gear-been doing this mainly in cold weather but now all the time. Dealer always says not problem-it has to "warm up" and doesnt want ot deal with it. My 2002 Impreza Outback Sport's check engine light comes on when I'm going downhill, not all the time. Also (not all the time), if I don't downshift when coming to a stop, the car dies, not stalls, dies. It starts right back up. The engine l i just wrecked my 04 wrx front impact and no air bag and seat belt locked after the impact...how do i contact some one to have this investigated?
Thank you!
